Abstract: A touch screen controller identifies an island in a matrix of acquired touch data values. A first sharpness of the island is calculated and a second sharpness of the island is calculated if the calculated first sharpness is greater than a sharpness threshold. A dynamic strength threshold is then determined as a function of the second sharpness if a variance of the island is greater than a dynamic variance threshold. A determination is then made that the identified island is a valid stylus island if a peak strength of the island is greater than the dynamic strength threshold.

Abstract: An electronic device disclosed herein includes a touch screen controller to identify an island i.e., a matrix of acquired touch data values, the island including adjacent touch data values indicating a potential touch of a touch sensitive screen. A first sharpness of the island is calculated using a first normalization type and not a second normalization type. A second sharpness of the island is calculated using the first and second normalization types if the first sharpness is greater than the sharpness threshold. A dynamic variance threshold is determined as a function of the second sharpness. A dynamic strength threshold is determined as a function of the second sharpness if a variance of the island is greater than the dynamic variance threshold, and the island is determined to be a valid stylus island if the peak strength is greater than the dynamic strength threshold.

Abstract: A method of foreign matter rejection for multi-touch capacitive touch screens includes performing touch detection in both self-capacitance mode and mutual capacitance mode. By combining information from both modes, a distinction is identified between wanted touches, such as by a finger or stylus, and unwanted touches such as by foreign matter.

Abstract: A single ITO layer design for a touchscreen panel incorporates a matrix of sensor cells formed from a single ITO layer of capacitive sensor pads, sensor bars, force lines and sense lines. Columns of multiplexed force lines are connected to rows of sensor pads to form force trees such that the force line of the end pair of sensor pads has a wide track, with the force lines of each subsequent pair of sensor pads having a reduced track width. Disposed between the columns of force trees, the matrix of sensor cells also includes columns of sensor bars connected to control circuitry via sense lines. The control circuitry applies a signal to the force trees to generate capacitance between rows of sensor pads and adjacent sensor bars. The control circuitry senses changes in the capacitance and resolves the location of a user touch in the matrix of sensor cells.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a system and method to remove common mode noise projected onto a touch sensor array from a display. The system is configured to activate two rows of electrodes at the same time, while coupling remaining rows of electrodes to ground. A first one of the two activated rows is used for detection of a touch and a second one of the two activated rows is used to detect common mode noise from the display. The common mode noise detected by the second row is removed from signals received from a plurality of columns of the touch sensor array.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a touch screen controller operable with a touch screen. The touch screen controller includes input circuitry configured to receive touch data from the touch screen, and processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to identify an island in the touch data, determine whether a horizontal groove is present in the island, determine whether a vertical groove is present in the island, and determine whether a diagonal groove is present in the island. The processing circuitry determines the island to indicate a single elongated touch where a diagonal groove is present in the island but horizontal and vertical grooves are not present in the island.
